RICHMOND — Road crews have cleared all lanes of westbound Interstate 580 after a crash this morning involving big rigs and trucks right before the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge, the California Highway Patrol said.

Around 6:25 a.m., two big rigs collided with two pickup trucks east of Canal Boulevard, according to patrol logs. Three lanes were blocked for nearly an hour, with only the far-left lane open for traffic. Crews eventually scaled that down to the far-right lane and as of 8 a.m., the roadway was fully cleared.

An ambulance was called to the scene, but the CHP said it appears that no one suffered any injuries.
